So much for TV

Sunday, October 30th, 2005

Just after mentioning I’ll be on hosting a live TV show, I’m replaced by someone from a rival university. Actually, I think the station director found someone else before he received my confirmation.

I’m going to take 2 political science classes in the first section of summer semester, so I’ll only have about a week before classes start again. Taking classes only in the first section of summer will give [...]
